How a 35-person team works more efficiently and gains legal certainty thanks to digital solutions
Managing municipal infrastructure presents municipalities with major challenges. The Oberwart municipal works department demonstrates how digital transformation can be successfully implemented in practice and what advantages it offers employees and citizens.
Initial situation: Complex tasks require modern solutions
With 35 employees, the Oberwart municipal works department manages all of the city's outdoor areas and infrastructure. From caring for the 2,500 city trees and maintaining streetlights to repairing municipal utility lines – coordinating these diverse tasks requires sophisticated management.
Digital transformation with measurable success
The introduction of the rmDATA Smart Infra information system marks a turning point. "In a modern administration, the documentation and traceability of our numerous activities are becoming increasingly important," explains construction manager Markus Obojkovits. "If a branch falls from a tree today, we can prove at the touch of a button that all trees are being properly maintained."
Centralized Data Storage Creates Added Value for All Stakeholders
The web-based solution provides all employees, engineering firms, and surveyors with access to a central, always up-to-date database. The gradual digitization of official notices and regulations reduces paper archives and optimizes workflows.
Mobile Application Revolutionizes Everyday Work
The introduction of mobile task management has proven particularly successful. The user-friendly app allows field staff to document their tasks directly on-site, add photos, and complete them. "Smart Infra with rmDATA Mobile is perfectly tailored to our needs thanks to its ease of use – finally, filling out work order forms is a thing of the past!" says Obojkovits.
Partnership Ensures Sustainable Success
The ongoing dialogue between the municipal works department and the software provider guarantees the continuous development of the solution. "We are in constant constructive dialogue with our contact person at rmDATA. We feel very well supported," confirms the construction manager.
